Re: Swik -> box2?

Good. I'm also cc'ing the box admins - anyone of us can help in the transfer. Shall we first announce it on squeak-dev? It probably means that we want to lock the swiki for a couple of hours while we are transferring it, might be polite to tell the community that beforehand. [box-admins: this is about moving the Squeak Swiki at Gatech over to box2]. Regards, Cees On 11/5/05, Mark Guzdial <guzdial(a)cc.gatech.edu> wrote: > I think that makes a lot of sense, Cees.

Unfortunately, 85.10.195.* is not eligible for auto unblocking. Due to the large number of virus-infected personal computers on cable/dsl/dialup connections, we no longer accept mail directly from these sources. Senders in cable/dsl/dialup pools should configure their mail software to send outgoing mail through their ISP's dedicated outgoing mail server. In MS Outlook, this is configured under: Tools š Email Accounts š View or Change š Change š Outgoing mail server (SMTP). The server is usually named 'smtp.example.com' or 'mail.example.com'. Their ISP's support line will be able to give them more details. We have whitelisted the mail servers of most major ISPs, so the mail will get through if sent through these systems.

But perhaps it was because late in November and earlier this month we were listed in the http://www.dnsbl.sorbs.net/ SORBS-DUHL list. We have since been removed from this list. Please remove at least the host 85.10.195.197 from your listing as this is a list server for the Squeak.org and SqueakFoundation.org groups.

Box-Admins Team Report for November, 2005
by Ken Causey 09 Dec '05

09 Dec '05

For November: We had a mailing list issue where an individual message appeared on the Squeak-Dev list many hundreds of times. As quickly as we could be blocked the reception of this message and removed copies waiting to be sent from the outgoing queue. It turned out to be a problem at gmane and not the fault of the sender at all. We contacted Lars Magne Ingebrigtsen hand he handled the problem quickly and efficiently. Our previous Bytemark virtual server (box1.squeakfoundation.org) has now been officially cancelled. If some service seems to be missing that may be why. Let us know. Late in the month the lists got suddenly quiet and we wondered what had happened. Eventually we discovered that our server had been listed in the SORBS ( http://www.us.sorbs.net/ ) dialup black list. Any server that uses this list to block spam will block all mailing list messages. We are working on this but having a hard time getting SORBS to remove us. There are indications that it is a known issue that SORBS has problems and should not be used any longer. Maybe you should consider that if you are having trouble. I want to thank the community for the montary support needed to fund these boxes and remind them that the bills continue to appear and that you can currently contribute to the hosting bills by going to http://discuss.squeakfoundation.org/ and clicking on the 'Make a Donation' button at the top right. The services being hosted have continued to grow and include (but are not limited to): http://www.squeak.org/ SqueakMap - http://map.squeak.org/ http://ftp.squeak.org/ http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/ http://discuss.squeakfoundation.org/ http://source.squeakfoundation.org/ and DNS services for squeak.org and squeakfoundation.org domain names.

Ok, the delisting is in progress. Personally, I don't feel like hacking around in our mail configuration for every broken blacklist. Let's announce it and tell the people that are receiving mail through broken SMTP proxies (if you use a blacklist that is so slow to respond, I consider your mail setup broken) to use Gmane... ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Support <Support(a)otrs2.hetzner.de> Date: Dec 6, 2005 7:26 AM Subject: [Ticket#: 2005120510008764] Re: SORBS listing To: Cees De Groot <cdegroot(a)gmail.com> Dear Cees, we already ask for the delisting of the whole ip-range on monday last week. Till now we get only a little bit success. Untill that we offer our customer a relay-server so that you can send your mails over it. All you need to do is to tell your MTA that he should send his mails via SMTP-Auth to the IP 213.133.106.192. Please use your Robot-Login and Passwort for authorization.

Re: problems with mailing-lists

The list is running as well, I sent out a test message last night that several people reported to have received succesfully... We're still looking what's wrong. Something *is* wrong, but we can't point our finger at it.

Re: squeakfr.org hosting ?

Hi Samir, I think this won't be a problem, but barring some formal decision process, it's probably best if we ask the box admins as a group. I've Cc'ed the group's list. Do you have an idea what will be needed in term of hosting facilities?
